1. Tap the gear in the top left of **Saved Chats**.
2. Tap **Your Data**.
3. Tap **Screenshots**, **Screen Recordings**, **Attachments**, or **Shared Links**.

## Problems

| What you see | What to do |
| --- | --- |
| There is no **YOUR LOCAL FILES**. | TextPort has no such files on this iPhone yet. They appear after you import a chat. |
| You want to delete one chat. | See [Rename or delete a chat](https://textport.com/guides/rename-or-delete-a-chat.md). |
| You want to delete everything. | See [Delete your account](https://textport.com/guides/delete-your-account.md). |
| You want to stop a shared link. | Tap **Shared Links**. Swipe the link to the left. Tap **Delete**. The link stops working at once. |

## Questions

### What does each row keep?

**Screenshots** are the pictures a chat was made from. **Screen Recordings** are the videos a chat was made from. **Attachments** are photos and files on your messages. **Voice Messages** shows how many voice messages have text. **Shared Links** are links you made when you shared an export.

### Does this delete my messages?

No. Your saved chats stay. Deleting attachments takes the files off your messages.

### Does this delete photos from my Photos app?

No. TextPort deletes only its own copy.

### Can I undo it?

No. TextPort says this cannot be undone.
